How the Finder Score helps you find a better savings account

The Finder Score is a simple score out of 10. The higher a savings account's score, the better we think it is for the average customer.

We score each savings account in our database of hundreds based on a data-driven methodology with 2 main criteria: Does the account offer a high interest rate? And is it easy for savers to actually earn that rate?

Our expert says

"Ubank is a great savings account! Not only have they offered competitive ongoing rates for years, they make it easy to get your interest, only requiring you to make a monthly deposit as opposed to multiple hoops like others. I love that I can pull money out and use it and not miss out on my interest. I also love that there are no ATM fees if you take money out overseas. With the rates going up to 5.5% in July for the first $100K, they are putting themselves in their own category in my opinion."

i use it as a savings account long-term, but the savings interest has gone down recently, making it almost not worth using as a savings account

    I live in NZ. We have been approached by someone in the USA who suggested we deposit $’s into an Australian UBank account presumably in their name.
    Is it possible to ask if a particular agency has an Account with UBank in the USA, just a yes or no please? And if so is there any protection for us in NZ if the other party is fraudulent?

      Hi Leigh, we’d suggest you ask the bank directly about this.

    UBank does not offer Bank@Post
    So use Nab ATM instead to deposit.

    Here is the list that tells you what Banks can deposit.

      Hi Alain,

      Thanks for getting in touch with Finder. I hope all is well with you. 😃

      Yes, you can manage your UBank account on your MacBook and phone. You can go to the website of UBank and log into your account. From there, you should be able to manage your account. On your phone, you can download their UBank app from the App Store of Apple.

      I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.

      Have a wonderful day!

    How do you transfer the money into the term deposit as there are no branches?

      Hi Denise,

      Thanks for getting in touch with finder.

      You can transfer using Electronic Funds Transfer or BPay. You may want to take note that UBank has no restrictions on how much money you can transfer. Please consider as well that your external bank may impose limits on the amount you can withdraw daily. You’d need to get in touch with them to confirm what these limits are.

      I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.

      Have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Joshua
